About Germs
Germs are small, living things. They are so small
we cannot see them with our eyes alone.
To see germs, we must look through something
that makes them seem much larger. A microscope
will do this. Jerry on page 108 is looking through
a microscope. It makes tiny germs look hundreds
of times larger than they really are.

Below you will see what Jerry saw through the
microscope. Those little things, like beads on a
string, are one kind of germ.
